Loving You Through Do'A
5. Fall in Love

It did not feel like it had been almost two weeks Akbar worked in the company of Mr. Heru. He did his job as an excellent office boy. Even according to Mr. Heru if Akbar had graduated from school maybe he would be promoted to the position.

Akbar is so busy during this year's school holidays, that he forgets for a moment his feelings for Zahra. Actually he did not really forget the girl, only he wanted to busy himself so as not to think too much about Zahra.

On the other hand Zahra was looking forward to Akbar's news, he stared at his phone and wished there was a new number on his phone. So did Akbar, he already has a Zahra number but was reluctant to send a message. He is still inferior to himself who has not been able to produce anything. If Zahra had known the reason why Akbar had stayed away from him, Zahra would have been disappointed with him, but Zahra accepted anyone who wanted to be close to him.

While Akbar was walking in his daydream, he accidentally nudged a woman. Akbar panicked to see the shoes worn by the woman were soiled by the splash of coffee that fell to the floor. The sound of the glass breaking made people turn their heads and pay attention to Akbar.

Akbar immediately cleaned the broken glass, he stood up and apologized to the woman.

"I'm sorry, because of me, your dirty shoes." Akbar said fearfully. He was afraid that the woman would curse him for his negligence.

"you? Do you think I'm so old?!" The woman's heart ruffled around her waist while looking at Akbar's face.

Hearing the woman's voice, the employee who passed by chuckled at her.

"Emm..." Akbar was confused what to call the woman.

The woman smiled kindly and stretched out her hand, "Call me Eve." Her speech.

Akbar was surprised when the hand was in front of him, "sa. I am Akbar."

"Are you the intern told by the office employee here?" Ask again, Eve's tone of voice this time sounded friendly and forgot the incident that had just happened.

"I work on school holidays."

Eve nodded softly, "I'm also on a school holiday. This office is great for accepting schoolchildren like us." Her speech.

"Yes." Yeah." Akbar.

"Judah then, I'm sorry you had to recreate the coffee for our boss."

"Ah, it's okay. I was wrong."

"Okay, good luck." Eve walked to the toilet to clean her feet and shoes.

Eve saw herself reflected from the bathroom mirror. He looked at himself for a while and smiled, he tidied his hair and re-picked his hair.

"Accbar.. Pretty handsome too." Said slowly.

With her legs up, Eve walked to her desk. He asked Akbar to make him coffee.

Akbar felt that Hawa was very lucky to be able to become an apprentice secretary of the company. He was just a high school kid like him. Akbar put coffee on Eve's table, but Eve immediately asked for Akbar's phone number on the grounds that the incident needed to be paid.

Akbar immediately gave it without further ado, because giving a phone number was not difficult than Eve had to tell the boss that there was a glass that broke because of it. Because he still doubts if others say the incident will be excessive.

Eve saw Akbar waiting in front of the room Heru sir. He wants to know what's going on. Eve listened to the conversation of the two of them from behind the door.

"What's Akbar?" Ask Mr. Heru.

"Emmm.. Here sir... Emm..."

"What's wrong? Just say it." Said Mr. Heru looking at the face of Akbar who looked hesitant like usual.

"I'm sorry, sir. Emm... There was an office glass that accidentally broke sir as I walked into my father's room." Akbar explained, he will accept the consequences.

Mr. Heru smiled, "It's okay Akbar. Now you just go home there."

"That's not what I mean sir, emm... I accept the consequences, if indeed you tell me to indemnify the glass sir."

"I understand, but it doesn't need to be changed. You know why?" Ask Mr. Heru.

Akbar shook his head.

"Because you're the first person who dares to take responsibility in your field. It's not worth the trouble, now you go home." Said Mr. Heru.

"I apologize again, sir. Thank you for the kindness of your father. Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumsalam."

Akbar immediately came out of the room of Mr. Heru and immediately walked home with a feeling of relief.

Eve was amazed by Akbar's honesty, never before had she seen an office employee who was aware of his mistake. Eve knocked on the door of Heru's room and then went inside and sat down while playing the pen.

"The man accidentally nudged me and the glass broke. But I like it because he's very honest about his attitude." Say Eve.

Mr. Heru immediately looked at his daughter, as he was in the story of meeting with Akbar for the first time.

"It's okay pah. I didn't tell him I was your son. It's just that I always smile when I first look at her face." Answer Eve.

"Do you like it?"

Eve shrugged her shoulders.

"You ever tell me there's such a thing as first sight love, is that happening to you?"

Eve looked directly at her papa, "papaaaaah.. I don't know how I feel about him. Let's go home, and at least you're honest with Akbar that you own this company."

"Hahahaha you should also be honest that you are my son."

They walked together and headed straight home.

Inside Eve's room sitting in the balcony of her room, she felt something in her heart during her meeting with Akbar, she also smiled herself remembering Akbar's face during the incident at the office.

"I think I like it." Say it to himself.

But he does not know how to send a message to Akbar, moreover he does not know whether Akbar already has a lover or not.

Every time Eve wanted to send a message she always deleted it, she really did not understand why she became like that. To send a message to another guy with very easy he did, but for Akbar, Hawa was really confused how to convey the message.

Eve took a deep breath, typed the message and sent it to Akbar.

"Akbar, it's me Eve."

This time Eve was upset there was no reply, even she had waited ten minutes. Usually, the guy who got a message from Eve immediately replied to him quickly.

At about 9pm, Eve smiled because she was waiting to reply to her message.

"Yes." Yeah."

Although only "yes" Eve remained happy, at least Akbar kept her number. He immediately called Akbar and hoped that Akbar would pick him up.

"Assalamu'alaikum."

Akbar's voice heard from the phone call made Eve nervous and smile herself.

"Hello."

^^^"Hello Akbar, you've saved my number right?"^^^

"Yes already. What's up Eve?"

^^^"Absolutely I can't call?"^^^

"That's not it, tomorrow's gonna have to work."

^^^Even looking at the wall clock of his room, "it was also 9 o'clock. I texted why new bales anyway? Very busy. Hehhee"^^

"I just finished my tadarus at the mosque."

^^^"Oh. Emm.. I used to bar suddenly I was sleepy."^^^

"Yes." Yeah."

^^^"Dah."^^^

"Assalamu'alaikum"

^^^"Wa'alaikumsalam."^^^

Akbar immediately turned off his phone, Eve smiled and laid her body on the bed.

"A different newspaper." Her speech.

Eve was increasingly convinced that her heart liked the man who became an apprentice in her papa office. Even he did not hesitate to show his attention to Akbar.

Many days Eve was very attentive to Akbar, even Eve ever brought lunch to Akbar. At that time Doni only pay attention to his friend's usual attitude to Eve's attitude. Moreover, Akbar did not know that Eve was his son Heru sir.

The love that Eve felt in her heart was getting deeper and deeper, even she wanted to be Akbar's life companion. Although they were still in school but Eve really liked her, never once did Eve love a man other than her papa.

..."I love him, and I don't want him to just be a wishful thinking in my brain. I love him with all my heart. God, I really love that Islamic man." ...
